Not sure he's entirely distancing us from it, unless there's been something on radio I don't know about. Per the FC app:

"There is a lot of talk about a number of players and I’ve had a host of players thrown up to me in interviews in recent days from the media and supporters, but a lot of it is far wide of the mark, especially with these guys under contract or already planning on moves to other clubs," he said.

"If a player is available and fits our criteria then we’ll have a look. Both Peter and myself have already suggested we’re in the market for another pivot but the market it tough out there at the moment so we’ll bide our time.

"With the option of moving Richard Horne to full back we might look at the possibility of bringing in a half back, but I think people need to understand that the increasing value of players is making that more difficult than ever."


That's a no comment rather than a denial, and I don't know whether I'm reading too much into it but it also reads to me like it is tentatively readying us for a fullback instead of a halfback now. He's saying we're after a pivot that might be a halfback, with Horne to fullback a possibility, not the definite plan Gentle was previously saying. The comment on the difficulty in particular makes me think we're struggling to get a 6.

That is my interpretation, oh god surely not :(

Surely we can afford both we have lost Manu & McKinnon, probably O'Meley, Moa that has got to be some serious dosh and so far no top earners barring G.Ellis in and let us not forget Bomber stated offered Manu a contract which would make him one of the highest earners at the club (Turner probably like for like with Arundel).

How can we have signed him before the anti tampering deadline? The club are hardly going to come out and say they've broken the RFL rules

Of course he'll say that, whether there is or isn't.
Can't see Hudgell being very happy about it and Shannon signing or even a hint of him talking to us personally and Hudge will have us straight up before the RFL for an illegal approach.

That's what I thought at first, but I can't find anything to confirm it. Just an article that they're resigned to losing him after he turned down a new deal.
